Display Random Banners
Rate Topic

I'd like a small strip of a banner, actually a photo, to display near the top of my product pages. But I want to randomize it from maybe 15 or so different ones. The idea is that each product, or maybe category as well, there would be a different strip of photo displayed.

All though I can have multiple banners on each page in carousel, I can't have them filled randomly from a bunch of different ones. Only manually or newest.

I am using UniTheme but it's the same story with their banner add-on.

Does anyone know how to get them to fill randomly?

It is not possible to display randoms randomly. But you can specify unique set of banners for each category/ product in one block

I'd also love to have this function, which I do with a bit of PHP code now myself.

It would be awesome if we could add multiple images to 1 banner place, like with the silder, and each time (on each refresh) 1 of these images would randomly show (without sliding, it should simply load 1 of x images and with a refresh another one). As for the slider it would be great to have a random setting so that slides load randomly.

This way the homepage wont look so static to frequent visitors.

Ecom-labs maybe you can add this function to your Banners Availability? I'd be happy to share the costs with someone.

I've installed the add-on in my 4.7.2 store running UniTheme. Having some issues:

- When I created a banner, I do not see the dialog for "available period".

- I created the banner block and choose "Random" and the banners. But it just displays them all at once on the page.

Also is thee a way to specify the height of banners when I go to mobile platforms? If I view the page on my phone it is scaled down very tiny. I was looking at your other add-on for "Full-width Blocks" but couldn't determine if that would allow it.

We cannot reproduce it on the clean 4.7.2 installation. Please PM me to solve the issue
